Union Market - An indoor farmer's market and restaurant hub across the street from Gallaudet's 8th St Garage. Open Tuesdays-Sundays.

Union Station - Not only is this beautiful building a tourist destination in itself -- it also serves as a transportation hub for local buses and the DC Metro (WMATA), commuter trains (MARC and VRE) and inter-city buses (e.g., Megabus, Greyhound). Union Station features many restaurants and a shopping plaza. As a bonus, the Gallaudet shuttle will take you directly there.

H St Corridor - This stretch of H. St NE is only a few blocks away from Gallaudet, and is one of DC's most exciting up and coming areas. Here you will find restaurants, shopping, and nightlife to fit any taste.
